Diversity

Welcome to the City of Scottsdale's Office of Diversity and Inclusion webpage. Our city is full of cultural events
and educational series for local residents and visitors to enjoy.

Please enjoy this page as a useful tool for connecting to Scottsdale's authentically diverse community, to ADA resources,
to Title VI Civil Rights information, and overall diversity and inclusion enhancing activities, both for work and play.

Our mission and purpose:

City Council Mission Statement: Simply Better Service for a World-Class Community

City Council priority: Reinvest in a high performing organization and work culture

Diversity and inclusion purpose statement: Help the City of Scottsdale become a more diverse workforce, skilled at
working inclusively and respectfully and committed to serving our community's diverse needs.

This is achieved through a diversity framework that includes three goals:

Expand diversity and inclusion in the workplace

Workforce will be skilled at working inclusively and respectfully,

Demonstrate city's commitment to our community's diverse needs.

Who we are:

We exist to foster fairness in organizational diversity, initiate strategies that intervene in discrimination or prejudice
attitudes, and most importantly, to celebrate and educate one another about who we are to promote conscious inclusion.
In addition, we develop and sponsor training, services, programs, and events that create work and community environments
where differences are valued, respected, and embraced.

The Diversity Manager is accessible both to employees and the general community and is a resource involving discriminatory
complaints or concerns.

Services & programs:

The image of the community and the organization is shaped through our interactions and partnerships inside and outside the
community. We learn more about one another as we interact in meaningful and productive ways with all members of the community,
thus shaping a healthy future in a truly pluralistic society.
